[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I got married at 42 and my husband, who could ski double-black diamonds but had never been on a snowboard, is now exclusively a snowboarder as well. He says its WAY easier on his knees than the skiing was. I heard the same from a ski patrol person at a resort this past season--she was in her late 60s and had recently switched from skiing to snowboarding. While the first few days suck b/c of all the falling, after that time period, the general act of snowboarding is much easier on the body than skiing. [/quote] I am 53, and I don't find skiing hard on the knees or the body at all. Whenever I go to Snowshoe, I meet older people who ski and don't have any obvious body problems. Maybe they're just taking it easy and mainly skiing the blue slopes. But that's fun too![/quote]
